'Are you sure?'
Aurelia nodded. She was too stunned to even speak.
Falcon examined the body before him. The man was thin and pale, and miraculously undecomposed. It was as if his body had been preserved for hundreds of years. His hair was long and black, curling around his ears in a typical Renatus fashion. His hands were covered with scars and a large black mark on his cheek obscured most of his face.
If not for the stink of death, he might be sleeping soundly.
Falcon supposed he did look like a Renatus after all. This man had the same vibe as Xander. He assumed Aurelia had recognized him by the mark on his cheek.
He looked at Aurelia to see she had blanched. A look of pure incredulity had her eyes opened wide. She had her hand over her mouth, as if simultaneously quelling nausea and expressing disbelief.
